“EXCELLENT Guide and experience”
We spent 4 hours in a tour in Tokyo and a full day in Kamakura Carol was very easy to deal with from the very beginning when we contacted her via GoWithGuide. She made a fee suggestions to our fort day and they made the experience so much better! She took us to a few hidden gems for lunch, less busy attractions, free entrance places. Kamakura day trip was totally organized by her and again the experience was great She is not only knowledgeable but also attentive to your needs and things you are more inclined to We 100% recommend her

“Great personalized tour”
I had set up a personalized day tour with Carol. She helped me with the logistics on what I wanted to do. She was very helpful and quick with responding. Unfortunately, the day before my tour, she became ill. She messaged me promptly to let me know that she had arranged someone else to take my tour. Masumi was my new guide and she was amazing! I really enjoyed my time with her. We were able to complete my entire tour. I would highly recommend Carol and Masumi!!

“Tokyo old and new ”
From the minute I connected with Carol I knew she would be the perfect guide for us. Her English is flawless and her sense of what we wanted to accomplish in our half day tour in Tokyo was spot on. We so appreciated her for showing us sights old and new and taking beautiful candid photos of us that she immediately shared. We also loved her company! I highly recommend Carol as the perfect Tokyo guide!

Once upon a time in Asakusa: Handicraft & Samurai
The Edo period, when Tokyo became the capital, is often seen as the peak of Japanese art and culture! Temple architecture, woodworking, woodblock prints, porcelain... I will use traditional handicrafts to illustrate the history and lifestyle of the people of Tokyo. Who were the samurai? What difference with a Ninja? How were armors crafted? I am also going to teach you all you need to know about those fierce warriors in front of a large collection of authentic weapons & armors.
